Peace on Earth...

Okay, Matt & Jacob -
Erin and I'll post the first un-kosher gimme list. These are all things that would be nice and would get used -- but we won't be disapointed if we don't get them. Stay creative.

I would like
* A red, business-like tie
* A subscription to the New York Times or Wall Street Journal (online or paper)
* Printer cartridges and paper for an HP DeskJet 5940. (I go through a lot of black ink; our current cartridge has a big "96" on it.)
* A new pair of dress shoes
(These are really boring. They make me sound like a stock broker.)
* A new deck of playing cards
* Swing / Jazz music for piano, trombone, alto saxamaphone, etc. (Get any one piece and we'll adapt it for the others)

Erin wants
* Socks
* A jump drive
* A rolling pin
* A book. Any book.
* A Nora Jones CD
* Snowpants
* Winter boots
* Running shoes
(Erin is much more fun than me, apparently.)

That's all we can think of right now. Please everybody else post their wishlists as well so we can choose good presents.

Thanks
-Abe & Erin
